[SEARCHINGSPIRIT]

The day of my birth was July 2, 1956
A situation you were in, and needed to fix.

In Doctor's Hospital in Washington DC,
you had a premature birth and delivered me.

You signed over your rights with the stroke of a pen,
You had no way of knowing what would happen to me then.

My new Mom and Dad said they had received a beautiful gift,
and they understood always,when my feelings would shift.

I called Leonard Sattler, and asked him what, he could do?
He said my records had burned in a fire and I would never know you.

I have no need to hurt you or bring up your past or strife,
I just wanted to tell you, I had such a wonderful life.

It was an self-less act of love that day,
You loved me enough, to give me a better way.

I have children, and grandchildren of my own now you see,
and occassionally wonder who out there looks like me.

I know I have siblings, that much I was told,
It would be nice to see them before I get old.

As for you my Mother, although you're not here,
In my heart you will always remain dear.

Thank you.
